In the image below you can see a healthy garden in which the strange plants have begun to mature. It takes on average two years for the plants to stand fully upright after they break the surface.

A rare event, these weird plants bloom on average once every 25 years. It is not
fully understood what exact conditions make the plants bloom. What is known is that
all of the plants in a large area bloom at the roughly the same time. The blooms last for
just a few days, before collapsing back to the ground. The research on these
strange desert growths is minimal because of the long period between flowering. There has
been some rough correlation with the sunspot cycle which lasts 22 years, but not enough evidence
has been gathered to convince scientists. These plants have not fared well under lab conditions,
thus making them even more difficult to study.
